Well I went for a walk down by the water just to bury my troubles in the sand

Then I wandered up into this seaside bar, And sat down next to this old man
D G D A
Well I guess he could tell that I wasn't doing well and he said “What's troubling you?”

I said it might be the rain, I shouldn't complain, but my lucky day is overdue

He said "I know how you feel son, trust me I've been in your shoes
Em G A
Lean in and listen up boy here's what you gotta do
[Chorus]
G
Put a sail on it, let your trouble float away
D
With the break of dawn it'll bring another day
A D
So don't you dwell upon it it'll fade like the setting of the sun
G
Put a sail on it let your troubles catch the wind
D
And when it's gone it won't come back again

It works every time, trust me son it never fails
D G
Put a sail on it" (Hoo hoo hoo)

He told me of his years, triumphs and tears, and living through a war or two
D G D A D
How you don't always win, get up and try it again, it's the doing that you've got to do

So we talked about life, lovers and wives and dreams that almost came true

How this world spins round you're either up or your down, but mostly it's up to you
